# Helly Hansen

> <p><strong>Known for:</strong> Oslo-headquartered, founded 1877 by Helly Juell Hansen. Sailing, ski, and workwear with serious technical heritage. Norwegian heritage, Canadian corporate parent. Used by ~50 European ski schools and instructor associations. The Norwegian foul-weather technical brand now under Canadian ownership. Still made to genuinely high standards; the Lifa Merino base layer line remains a category benchmark. Honest caveat: ownership is now in Toronto.<br><a data-router-slot="disabled" href="https://www.hellyhansen.com" type="external">https://www.hellyhansen.com</a></p>
